Hello,

I am currently looking for small MF , 4 plex and up, in RI, with good numbers. Let me know if you come across anything. Thanks

Job well done. Did you pull permits for all the plumbing and electrical work you did yourself? I thought you could only do that kind of work if you were the owner and you occupied the house.

You can contact Marek Pavlovsk from Brooklyn. He has extensive experience as a fabricator for experiential marketing including trade shows, fashion week, window installation, theatre/film/print, and custom furniture. He is serious and very professional.  Feel free to PM to get his contact. Good luck on your project.

Hello Adam, 

Congrarulations on your new investments. I am also interested into OOS turnkey investing.  KC is on my list for the same reasons you mentioned. I am defenitely interested in hearing from you about your TK provider. Did you have the luxury of browsing through several listings? How long was the wait before selecting the 2 you picked? Any personal criteria you would recommend? 

Hello Susan,

We used Homepro Inspections of RI (401) 821-5446. They were very thorough and edited a nice document. You should ask for a radon evaluation since Narragansett is exposed, unless there is a mitigation system already installed.

Good luck.

Thank you so much for your input and comments. I can now ewpand my search.

Hello BP community,

I am a newbie investor based in Wakefield, RI and looking for buy and hold properties in need of rehab work. After 20 + years in France, my wife who is from New England and I decided to move back to the US . I guess it was my turn to follow her. In the past, we have handled several renovation projects in the south of France without knowing there were flips and always added value to our homes. We purchased this year a 4 bedroom rental property in Narragansett and used Rhode Island joint Reinsurance Association as insurance company. We were told this was the only insurance company handling rental properties in RI...The cost was 2000 USD per year. Is it pretty much normal for a SFH rental? Do you know any other insurance companies?

Thank you for your precious help. I have discovered BP only recently and I am blown away by the sharing spirit it carries.
